1. The FlipGive community adores the Ginger Scalp Care Shampoo. While this shampoo works hard, it is delicate and soft to achieve harmony and prosperity between your scalp and hair. This shampoo gently removes dead skin while soothing and healing your scalp, and ultimately earns the title of The Body Shop’s best-selling anti-dandruff shampoo.

4. The Coconut Body Butter and Shea Body Butter are both big hits for FlipGivers. The Coconut Body Butter and Shea Body Butter are used for dry skin concerns, and target nourishment and protection. With quick absorption and a non-greasy formula, your skin will feel soft, smooth and moisturized for up to 96 hours (woah!). Sourced from Samoa, coconut oil is a beloved ingredient at The Body Shop and is used to fight dryness by supporting your skin’s natural moisture retention and locking it in. The coconuts are ethically hand-harvested and cold-pressed to produce oil that is organic and of the highest nutrient content. The Body Shop has a fair trade relationship with Women in Business Development Inc (WIBDI), a local Samoan NGO, that empowers farmers by stimulating the economy and business in their communities.

6. The Edelweiss line is The Body Shop’s newest and hottest collection of skincare products. Found in Alpine environments, Edelweiss is a mountain flower that produces its own antioxidant: leontopodic acid. Edelweiss is extremely resilient and can attribute its ability to withstand harsh alpine environments to this antioxidant; thus, skincare including this ingredient will provide the same protection for your skin! The products in the Edelweiss line- including the Edelweiss Daily Serum Concentrate and the Edelweiss Bouncy Night Mask- improve the smoothness of your skin by combating daily exposure to aggressors that damage your skin and can lead to dryness, dullness, and premature aging.
